Absolutely fantastic hotel. The staff were brilliant and so helpful. Subway was right on our doorstep allowing easy links to kyoto station in 9 minutes. We went for a room with lounge access which is a must. Good selection of drinks tp help you unwind after exploring this lovely city. Lots of food places nearby including Nishiki market. We originally had a booking at the Hilton but so glad we changed our mind.

Loved this hotel. Rooms are nicely appointed and comfortable beds. Their hotel pajamas are the nicest ones in Japan! We had access to the lounge - afternoon coffee/tea and beautiful pastries included. Coffee machine serves a decent latte. Happy hour with free beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and snacks. The cocktail bar has a great selection and the bartender took pride in his creation. Breakfast was good (choice of eggs).Would have liked to have a coffee machine that serves lattees at breakfast. Highly recommend this hotel. Great value.

The room is a very modern style, which was quite nice. The room fronted the main street so it was noisy throughout the night. If you’re a light sleeper, you have to wear earplugs as you hear the traffic noise. We found the room clean. The staff was friendly. The breakfast was very good. If you like your omelettes more well done you have to ask for that as the omelettes tend to be a little more runny. If you want an espresso or a cappuccino, they’re more than happy to provide that as well. We had booked a room with lounge access. In most Japanese hotels that means not all hotel guests have that access. However, in this hotel, every person had that access to the exclusivity and relaxation was not quite the same. The first night we went to The Lounge. You are only given one appetizer consisting of three very small dishes. You had no choice in what you were given. That was very subpar. They did change it to a more traditional appetizer buffet style the next day, which was much more pleasant. They could improve the selection of the alcohol to more premium brands.

This is a clean modern hotel in a convenient location. Reception staff are really friendly and helpful. Market, Palace, subway and gardens are a few minutes walk away. Bamboo forest is reached by catching a 63 bus next to the hotel and us a 40 minute journey costing yen 230 each way. Golden pavillion is reached by walking to the main park and catching a number 204 bus.Note the hotel is on a busy 8 lane road, which does get a lot quieter at night, but you can hear significant traffic noise from the rooms, which kept me awake. Breakfast is a bit disappointing. Small area and very limited choice. We had to wait 10 minutes for a table at 8:00 am. Coffee is just a big urn of Luke warm pre-brewed not very nice. No fruit teas, just regular. Fruit was fresh, and staff will make you freshly cooked eggs and onlets which was good. Club lounge is comfortable. Snacks were good quality. Alcoholic drinks are low quality, eg really bad Cava, non-premium gin, and a generic branded blended whisky. Coffee machine is nice to have, but no mint or fruit tea bags - just green teas. Overall this is not a bad hotel if you manage to get a quiet room round the back, but it was expensive - £250 a night in October, so not the best value for money.
